SUBJECT: Walter Du Bois Richards.
I need to know how to get my watercolor appraised. I can find Mr. Richards listed in the American Watercolor Society and other places on the internet, but WHERE, OH, WHERE are the addresses of appraisers and how do those of us who live in the boonies find an appraiser. I used to have Mr. Richards phone number, address, but lost it. I have not spoken to him in over 10 years. HELP! it's so frustrating to keep seeing the name but no references to how to contact him.

I have what I believe is a print of a watercolor. It is signed "E. M. Ashe", and "-89-" appears below the signature. While searching the name on the internet, I found E.M.Ashe mentioned on sites on which out of print books were being sold. He was listed as an illustrator of three such books, dated between 1901 and 1905. I have no idea how to tell if this piece of artwork is a numbered print, or if it was a mass produced copy. If someone could explain how to tell, I would appreciate it. But mainly, I would like any information possible about the artist --I just love this piece of work!! My e-mail address is deraldamy@webtv.net.

Two questions stemming from the purchase of my first watercolor, a landscape of the European Alps, in which pencil marks are visible when the artwork is viewed closely. (1) Do some artists intentionally leave pencil marks, or might this painting have been a "work in progress"? (2) Can anyone provide information about the artist, who signed "B. Manz" in the lower right. I could find no date, but there is a title, presumably in German (perhaps "Hut bir Kitzbuhl") on the back. From its condition, I assume the painting is <50 years old. Thanks!

I have a watercolor that is signed in 1914 by a J. F. Canham. It is of a oasis scene on the desert with palm trees and some camels and nomads. It is quite beautiful but want to know if anyone has ever heard of this artist? Thank you

I advise anyone with a painting by an unknown artist to go to your local library first. Look at the Benezit or old volumes of Who's Who in Art (American versions)and old volumes of magazines on art. There is also an art periodical reference series which can be helpful. Library staff live to research and see a grateful smile, so feel free to ask. You may be rewarded with a valuable painting or at least an interesting story to tell about the painting on your wall. You can also go to galleries which sell paintings similar in age and/or style to the one you're researching.

Regardless of authorship or provenance, paintings are often worth plenty because of their beauty, subject matter or age. Name of artist is not the only determinant of value. I once had a couple of Hogarth engravings which only brought a couple of hundred each, because they were from the early part of his career when he was doing "hack" work to keep alive. Later works with social commentary or scenes of public debauchery bring thousands.

I hope this helps. Good luck looking.

I have just inherited 2 airbush watercolor prints that are signed, "Harris" and would like to know more about this artist. Back of prints are marked "Newman Decor" copyright 1941. Anyone know anything about this artist? Thank you!

I am searching for information regarding the art of Hans Axel Walleen. Specifically, I'd like to know names and dates of paintings. I recently inherited two of his watercolors, but have been unable to identify them.

Here is background information I have been able to obtain: Mr. Walleen was born in Malmo, Sweden in 1902. He immigrated from Sweden in 1906 and spent most of his life in New York and Connecticut. He was an illustrator of children's books as well as an artist. Mr. Walleen was a long-time member of AWS as well as its past-president from 1957-59. Mr. Walleen participated in the 92nd Annual Exhibition of the American Watercolor Society at the National Academy of Design in New York City in 1959. He exhibited in London and in museums and galleries, at the Salmagundi Club in New York City, and in Chicago. He retired to Connecticut. He died while visiting his daughter in Spain in February, 1978.

I would appreciate being contacted by anyone who can provide more information as to names and dates of his watercolors.

I have what I believe to be a watercolor signed Turner and the copyright symbol. I have tried to do some research and have come up with a possible Janet Elizabeth Turner.
